Experience one of the most influential works of German Romantic opera at Melbourne's historic Athenaeum Theatre. This event is presented as part of German Week Melbourne by HENKELL BROTHERS and HENKELL WINES in cooperation with the AHK and celebrates the rich cultural heritage of the German-speaking world through music, storytelling and artistic excellence.
Premiered in 1821, Der Freischütz is regarded as a landmark of German Romantic opera. Drawing on folklore, mythology and the supernatural, Carl Maria von Weber's masterpiece tells a captivating story of love, ambition and fate set amongst mysterious forests and ancient legends. Its influence can be traced through the works of Wagner and many of the great composers who followed.
